Customer Email as Reply-To for Contact Forms Plugin
What This Plugin Does
This extension automatically sets the customer’s email address as the Reply-To address for contact form submissions in Shopware 6. Instead of receiving contact requests from the shop’s default sender address, administrators can reply directly to the customer with a single click from their email client.
The plugin improves communication workflows by ensuring that replies are sent to the actual inquiry sender while maintaining compatibility with modern mail server security requirements.
Rather than modifying core Shopware email behavior manually, the extension integrates directly into the existing contact form and mail flow system to create a more efficient and user-friendly communication process.

Why It Matters
By default, Shopware contact form emails are often sent using the store’s own sender address, which means administrators cannot directly reply to the customer inquiry without manually copying the customer’s email address.
This creates unnecessary friction in customer communication workflows and increases the risk of response delays or mistakes.
Using the customer’s email as the Reply-To address provides a cleaner and more professional support process while remaining compatible with modern email authentication standards such as SPF and DMARC. Proper Reply-To handling is widely recommended for secure and reliable email communication workflows.
The plugin helps merchants: Improve customer support responsiveness, simplify email communication processes, reduce manual work for support teams, avoid email handling mistakes, create more efficient contact form workflows.
For stores receiving large numbers of customer inquiries, even small workflow improvements can significantly reduce operational overhead and improve customer experience.
